Interior overhead lighting

My finishing kit and canopy are on order. In preparation for that and without having any details yet on what the canopy will or will not accommodate in terms of overhead lighting it's difficult to do any proper research. Any suggestions about what to use / what has worked for you?

I just used the lighting that came with the kit... once the wires are run and I get the plane flying, if I want to try something else out I'll give that a swing. :)

Did your kit come with lights, or were they from Midwest Panel Builders?
Our kit didn’t have any interior lights included, but MWPB did send lights.

They may have come from MWPB. That part of the inventory is sorta fuzzy for me because I had a lot of different things underway by the time I got to that box.

Edward should be able to confirm if they are included with the kit or if MWPB supplies them. Either way it's best and easiest to just ask. :)

As far as I'm aware, only the landing lights are part of the Sling kit, but I stand to be corrected.

There is at least an option to get nav/strobe lights from Sling as well. Don't know about interior lights.
